whats the deal with some sitcoms where a main character has a wife / husband / friend but that person is never shown or other characters in the sitcom have never seen the character. in dads army capt manwaring's wife has never seen by other members of the squad. mrs columbo is never seen. norms wife in cheers. niles wife maris in cheers. wilson in home improvement
is this some nod to some classic literature, greeks or romans. budgetary restraints ?
